The narrator is falling in love and doesn't know why he is acting differently. He asks the doctor and then his friends, they all say that it sounds like he is falling in love.
Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, saying that "love has him in a lassoed condition." She goes on to say that Jackson's "rich vocal romping hooks this catchy twirl." The production was described as "big-sounding" and that it adds "just the right snap." [2] Ben Foster of Country Universe gave the song an A grade," saying that "the light jaunty arrangement creates just the right mood for the silly lyrics, while Jackson’s laid-back delivery fits the song like a glove. The result is that Jackson creates an infectious singalong-friendly earworm out of a song that could have been a grating annoyance in the wrong hands." [3]
"Love's Got a Hold on You" debuted at number 52 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of July 25, 1992.
